5. Maintenance and Care
- Water Resistance: The watch is 5ATM (50 meters/165 feet) water resistant. This means it is suitable for hand washing, rain exposure, and swimming. Do not press any buttons while the watch is submerged in water. Avoid hot water bathing or diving, as extreme temperature changes and high pressure can compromise the seals.
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Battery: The watch uses an original battery. When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure water resistance is maintained.
- Storage: Store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
